In vitro and in vivo effects of fungicides on angular leaf spot pathogen (Pseudocercospora griseola f. griseola) and common bean [PDF]

PeerJ
Angular leaf spot, caused by Pseudocercospora griseola, is a destructive fungal disease inducing yield losses up to 80% in common bean-growing areas of tropics and subtropics. Although various fungicides are used against the disease, their potential side

Quantitative proteomics analysis reveals important roles of N-glycosylation on ER quality control system for development and pathogenesis in Magnaporthe oryzae.

PLoS Pathogens, 2020
Genetic studies have shown essential functions of N-glycosylation during infection of the plant pathogenic fungi, however, systematic roles of N-glycosylation in fungi is still largely unknown.

Behavioural responses of peach potato aphid, Myzus persicae Sulzer (Hemiptera: Aphididae), to entomopathogenic fungi infected conspecifics

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Myzus persicae showed no detectable behavioural response to Beauveria bassiana‐colonised agar alone. Aphids spent significantly more time in odour fields containing EPF‐infected conspecifics than healthy aphids, agar or blank air. EPF infection may alter host‐associated odours, suggesting pathogen‐mediated cues could influence aphid behaviour and ...

Functional and transcriptomic analyses in Neurospora crassa reveal a crucial role for the N‐glycoprotein deglycosylation process in fungal homeostasis

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
In Neurospora crassa, a cytosolic GH18 endo‐β‐n‐acetylglucosaminidase (ENGase) functions as an active deglycosylating enzyme. Deletion of this severely alters tolerance to multiple stress conditions and causes extensive transcriptomic reprogramming, including upregulation of a GH20 exo‐β‐n‐acetylhexosaminidase under ER stress, indicating that N. crassa

Autophagy-related protein UvAtg14 contributes to mycelial growth, asexual reproduction, virulence and cell stress response in rice false smut fungus Ustilaginoidea virens

Phytopathology Research, 2022
Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved degradation process that degrades damaged proteins to maintain homeostasis and to protect cells against stress.

Divergent roles of ent‐kaurene oxidase paralogs in rice momilactone biosynthesis

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Rice contains a five‐gene tandem array of genes encoding members of the ent‐kaurene oxidase (KO) family, with OsKOL4 and OsKOL5 playing divergent roles in momilactone metabolism, but both acting in the production of antifungal and antibacterial phytoalexins, which are important for disease resistance.

RING E3 ligase SNIPER8 functions redundantly with three close homologs to regulate the turnover of transcriptional co‐repressor TPR1

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The Arabidopsis E3 ligase SNIPER8 negatively regulates immunity by promoting ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of the transcriptional corepressor TOPLESS‐RELATED1, limiting excessive immune responses, maintaining immune homeostasis, and balancing defense activation and normal plant growth.

Effective chemical management for prevention of aflatoxins in maize

Phytopathologia Mediterranea, 2018
The presence of aflatoxins in maize grain has been an increasing problem in the Mediterranean area, possibly due to climate change such as increased temperatures and extended drought periods.
